REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Plan Administrator
Graham Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Graham Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the period ended March 31, 2012 and for the period since inception (September 1, 2010) through March 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Graham Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended March 31, 2012 and for the period since inception (September 1, 2010) through March 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

GRAHAM CORPORATION
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
AS OF MARCH 31, 2012 AND FOR THE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012 AND FROM INCEPTION (SEPTEMBER 1, 2010) TO MARCH 31, 2011
1. THE PLAN
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES — The financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
General — On July 29, 2010, Graham Corporation’s (the “Company’s”) stockholders approved the Graham Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan’s first offering period was from September 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan meets the qualification standards of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pursuant to which the Plan is not subject to taxation. The Plan is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
The Plan covers all the U.S. based employees of the Company and U.S. based employees of any future U.S. subsidiary of the Company.
Contributions — Participants may make contributions to the Plan through payroll deductions for the purpose of purchasing the Company’s common stock. The Plan operates with separate consecutive six-month periods commencing January 1 and July 1, respectively. The Plan will continue to operate in this manner until such time as the Plan is amended or terminated (see Note 2).
Share Purchase and Withdrawals — Participants have the ability to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company at 85% of its fair market value on the last or first business day of the six-month periods ending June 30 and December 31, respectively. If, prior to the end of any period, a participant elects to withdraw from the Plan or has been terminated, the Plan refunds any amounts withheld in that period plus any carryover from the previous period. Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Participants of the Plan purchased 13,351 shares of the Company’s common stock during the period from inception (September 1, 2010) to March 31, 2011 and 19,080 shares for the Plan year ended March 31, 2012. Under the Plan, 167,569 shares remain reserved for future issue. Refunds from participant withdrawals have not been significant. The maximum number of shares subject to the Plan is 200,000.
Limitations — Employees owning shares representing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of shares of the Company are not permitted to subscribe for any shares of Company common stock under the Plan. Additionally, participants are prohibited from purchasing shares through the Plan with an aggregate fair market value in excess of $25,000 in any one calendar year. Participants are also subject to an annual share maximum purchase limit of 5,000 shares.
Plan Administration — All expenses for Plan administration are paid by the Company and are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
